Hound dog
Nana's are Beautiful
This is quite quickly turning into the summer from hades. To put it bluntly, mother in law is driving me NUTS.
Yesterday, I kid you not folks, the woman called me 8 times.
I lost track of the number the day before.
And today it's only after 3pm and it's already well over 15. OMG!!!
Awful, but at the moment I'm pretending to not be at home. Might be different if it were something important. But it is always something trivial and stupid.
Sigh. She is acting like my husband these days. And heck one of him was too much, TWO of them is driving me over the edge fast.
I know it's attention seeking. I understand that. But OMG I cannot give the woman a moment by moment commentary on the progress of the paperwork involved in selling the house. And NO I am not going to be a mega pest to husband's brother and wife.....which is what she's wanting me to do........to get this so called info.....which there really is none. It's a process. A process she's been thru countless times before and knows what's involved.
Somehow all her bill paying has been thrust onto me. Yet, she won't leave me alone about it for a second. So I'm trying to figure out what bills she has, what she can and can't pay.......what has and hasn't been paid.....UGH! With her badgering me non stop. Getting to where I can't think.
I want to dig a 10 ft hole in the back yard and HIDE.
And to make matters worse.......she spents most of her time feeling sorry for herself and sobbing to get us to do what she wants. So now husband wants to ask doctor to give her an anti-depressant. I nixed it. I don't think she needs it (or the bill) and I doubt seriously she'd take it. Money wasted. Money she doesn't have to waste. I'm going to sound cold and crass, but the tears and sobbing strike me as more of an attention thing than depression. She can turn on and off the water works at will, depending on whom she's dealing with. She rarely cries on me, doesn't work. Bawls all over husband though cuz the guilt works on him.
Now this woman who was perfectly happy living like a hermit at home.......has suddenly decided we're to be at her beck and call 24/7.
OMG I should've told her I had summer classes.
Whew. Thanks for letting me get that out. I know husband is going to want to go over there later and I needed to get that off my chest before coming face to face with her.
I love her, but right now she's making it very hard to like her.
Sigh
